Women’s Entrepreneurial Program (2007-2013)
Founded in 2007, Breaking Ground's Women's Entrepreneurial Program (WEP) provides women with critical business skills and the confidence to put them to use. In collaboration with the locally based Groupement d’Appui pour le Developpement Durable (GADD) , we offer a seven-week business course that incorporates topics such as feasibility studies, basic marketing, cost analysis, and leadership, among others. At the end of the course women are invited to submit business proposals to receive loans from Breaking Ground. The WEP is currently on hold.

Breaking Ground Football (2007-2013)
Football (soccer) is an important aspect of Cameroonian culture often noted as a common thread among Cameroon’s extensive number of ethnic groups. The sport, however, is socially delegated for men. BGF uses football as a social development tool to address issues faced by marginalized young women living in vulnerable communities.
